  • Prior art traditionally concrete walls are built by erecting wooden or metal forms into which concrete is poured. These forms are structurally rigid and, when properly secured, produce a straight wall. Once the concrete has hardened, the forms are removed and either discarded or moved to the next construction site. Concrete, however, does not provide the most efficient thermal barrier, nor does it provide a suitable surface for attaching interior sheet rock and wall boards or exterior siding and facades. Erection and removal of these large heavy forms is a labor intensive procedure and transportation costs for moving the forms from one construction site to another is expensive. Most prior art building structures use large amounts of concrete and have elaborate engineered steel frames. Whereas, my invention uses minimal amounts of concrete in combination with other building materials and the steel frame having the ability to be adjusted to accommodate different wall widths and is used for the permanent support for the structural thermal framing and panel system.

  • Prior art, traditionally concrete walls are built by erecting wooden or metal forms into which concrete is poured. These forms are structurally rigid and, when properly secured, produce a straight wall. Once the concrete has hardened, the forms are removed and either discarded or moved to the next construction site. Concrete, however, does not provide the most efficient thermal barrier, nor does it provide a suitable surface for attaching interior sheet rock and wall boards or exterior siding and facades. Erection and removal of these large heavy forms is a labor intensive procedure and transportation costs for moving the forms from one construction site to another is expensive. Most prior art building structures use large amounts of concrete and have elaborate engineered steel frames. Whereas, my invention uses minimal amounts of concrete in combination with other building materials and the steel frame having the ability to be adjusted to accommodate different wall widths and is used for the permanent support for the structural thermal framing and panel system. [0005]
  • Another type is an insulated, poured concrete wall having internal and external insulation, drywall or other surface preparation connecting areas which are continuous of and extending the entire or selected lengths of the wall and apparatus for the provision of windows into the wall. This is elaborate and more expensive than my invention. Whereas, my invention has fewer parts to assemble making it more cost effective. [0006]
  • Another type is a method for constructing a wall of a building includes the steps of providing a footing form to outline a horizontal dimension for the wall. Having a wall form ring material between opposing sides of the footing form and allowing the poured wall forming material to set to provide a wall base. Having a first wall and a second wall being opposite to the first wall forming an upright structure forming a wall. This system is more elaborate and more expensive than my invention.

  • Another type is a prefabricated wall forming structure for constructing reinforced concrete wall employs insulating foam plastic panels that are interlocked into two parallel concrete impervious walls by I-beam channels that are spaced apart by tie elements. The tie elements can support horizontal or vertical reinforcing bars and prevent the foam wall from spreading apart under the hydraulic pressure of the poured concrete. This system has more parts to assemble than my invention making more costly assembly and this system lacks the ability to be adjustable. My invention has an adjustable frame giving it the ability to adjust to different widths. [0010]
  • Another type is a modular wall construction system includes a box-like block form of expanded foam plastic material such as polystyrene having opposite, parallel, spaced apart side walls and end walls extending between upper and lower surfaces and defining an internal cavity for receiving concrete slurry.

  • CONCLUSION AND SCOPE OF INVENTION
  • Accordingly, the reader will see that the structural thermal framing and panel system for assembling finished or unfinished walls with multiple panel combinations for poured and nonpoured walls of this invention has the ability to be installed in a fraction of the time compared to masonry or solid concrete walls with about the same or less in total material costs. Furthermore, the structural thermal framing and panel system has the additional advantages in that: [0113]
  • it provides an improved thermal-efficient, cost effective permanent wall framing and wall forming system which holds the building panels in a desired position so the resultant wall in straight. [0114]
  • it provides a finished wall which has much greater structural integrity than previous wall forming systems. [0115]
  • it provides for a permanent stud frame with a plurality of forms or building panels with a defined space for receiving filler, and wherein the framing stud substantially conforms to a portion of the forms or building panels and resists bending in the wall. [0116]
  • it allows the framing stud web to become part of a rigid inner and outer cord or flange that is offset from the outer edge of the concrete, thus moving the compression and tension zone out from the center axis point. [0117]
  • it provides comparable in overall strength to a much thicker concrete wall and also has better seismic properties. [0118]
  • it allows all panels or panel forms in this system to be prefinished on the exterior facings prior to delivery. [0119]
  • it allows the framing stud assembly to adjust to different wall thickness, so that the same framing stud assembly has multiple use. [0120]
  • it provides a wall forming system to utilize the structural strength of the framing stud assembly in reducing the amount of concrete and rebar needed to form a structurally sound wall. [0121]
  • it allows a plurality of permanent panel forms in combinations with or without concrete. [0122]
  • it provides bottom bend out tabs for holding the framing stud assembly to the footing or floor. [0123]
  • it provides top bend out tabs for holding the framing stud assembly to the adjoining form panels. [0124]
  • it allows panels to be precoated with cementitious fiber or wire type reinforced hard coat finish for exterior facing of the forms that can be taped or meshed at the seams and a finished coat. [0125]
  • it allows the ability to fasten the framing stud assembly to footings or other substrates without the use of “L”, “C”, or “U” channel usually required by prior art. [0126]
  • Although the description above contains many specifications, these should not be construed as limiting the scope of the invention but merely providing illustrations of some of the presently preferred embodiments of this invention. [0127]
  • Thus, the scope of the invention should be determined by the appended claims and their legal equivalents, rather than by the examples given. [0128]
